Yes, I did Access to Science as only a couple of Vet schools even accept the Access to Medicine. Although as I said before, research this before picking which Access course to study.I'm at the University of Nottingham on their Preliminary Year course. There are no other Access students this year I think, however I know for sure there was one last year as I have spoken to her. I don't think vet schools are snobby about them; this couldn't be further from the truth! Access courses are like A Levels packed into a single year, including a big research project. They contain a variety of exams and coursework which enhances research skills. They're very intensive and universities know that mature students who do them will have been out of education for a while, making it even more impressive when you succeed. The Prelim/Gateway tends to aim to take on 25 students each September, so I don't feel like they're biased against Access, it's just they accept a wide variety of courses. For example, a couple of Access students, a couple of BTEC students, a couple of mature students, a couple of RVNs etc. each year. The main thing you need is to just meet the entry requirements, and then absolutely shine in your interview. At no point during my interview did I think the interviewer cared about which course I did, so I really wouldn't worry about people being
